The movie refrains from editorializing but it is fairly clear that they 
opposed Rosset. I made the decision not to write about the dark side of 
Barney Rosset in my review since I didn't want to discourage people from 
renting the movie. The final 3rd of the movie reveals him to be 
something of a misogynist.
